Hi all. This is on a 2017 259D CTL, SN FTL11539.
The electric quick coupler went out 3 times on the PO, so he gave up and gutted the motor/wires to the loader arm. You now use a 3/8" ratchet to drop the bucket/change tools and it's rather inconvenient. Before I spend the money on the CAT hydraulic quick coupler conversion, I'm wondering if anyone with a "D" series had converted from electric to the old flip lever mechanical style, which I would be fine with. If so, do all components have to be sourced individually, or what all was entailed to do this?
Thanks in advance.
